Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To confirm superiority of insulin degludec/liraglutide compared to insulin degludec/liraglutide placebo in controlling glycaemia as add-on treatment in insulin naïve subjects with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) inadequately controlled on sulphonylurea (SU) with or without metformin therapy after 26 weeks of treatment.;Secondary Objective: To compare general efficacy and safety of the addition of insulin degludec/liraglutide and insulin degludec/liraglutide placebo in insulin naïve subjects with T2DM inadequately controlled on SU with or without metformin therapy compared to after 26 weeks of treatment.;Primary end point(s): Change in glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c) from baseline (randomisation, Visit 2) ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: After 26 weeks of treatment

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): 1 - Responders achieving pre-defined target for HbA1c o HbA1c < 7.0% (53 mmol/mol) o HbA1c = 6.5% (48 mmol/mol) 2 - Change from baseline in fasting plasma glucose (FPG) 3 - Change from baseline in body weight 4 - Number of treatment emergent (confirmed) hypoglycaemic episodes 5 - Number of treatment emergent adverse events (AEs) ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 1 - After 26 weeks of treatment 2 - After 26 weeks of treatment 3 - After 26 weeks of treatment 4 - During 26 weeks of treatment 5 - During 26 weeks of treatment
